    Nowhere near as bad as people think. It's not a full price £60 game. It's less than half of tat depending on where you go. Patches from previous Sonic Origins are on by default, so it runs better.

    As for the content. It has loads of content. Mirror mode, challenges, new characters on old games and a whopping 16 games to play. Including many that people never got much a chance to play.

    As for the content. It has loads of content. Mirror mode, challenges, new characters on old games and a whopping 16 games to play. Including many that people never got much a chance to play. For example Tails Adventure and the alternate version of Sonic 1 with Bridge Zone in it. Is it perfect? No. Is it anything special? Not really. But it's a nice package all in all. For its low price, it's more than fine. If you've played all the games before. Maybe avoid it though. Challenges and Mirror mode are fine but not as a while worth the sale. But if you're missing any games, it's the place to be.

    There are plenty of features. So just do your research and work it out for yourself.    … Expand

    Love it. All the classic sonics bundles into one all at a fair price. I highly recommend.

    Bought the physical version off Amazon. The Plus content is not only absent from the disc but is also unlocked via a DLC code. So if you buy physical, what you're actually getting is a physical version of the original Sonic Origins plus a download code in a box that has Sonic Origins Plus branding printed on it.

    This game is absolutely amazing. Literally the best way to play Sonic 1, 2 and 3. It's upscaled for modern TVs, the extras are great, it puts a proper spin dash in Sonic 1, all characters are playable across all titles, there's a pretty good mission mode, YOU CAN RETRY CHAOS EMERALD CHALLENGES! So much good stuff. Why a 7 then you ask? It made me play through Sonic CD. It's the onlyThis game is absolutely amazing. Literally the best way to play Sonic 1, 2 and 3.

So much good stuff. Why a 7 then you ask? It made me play through Sonic CD. It's the only downside. Truly abysmal, but necessary to see all the connecting cutscenes across the game (which are also awesome as its the same team that did Sonic Mania adventures animated them). Games unbelievable aside from that.… Expand

    Amo Sonic pero lo que le han hecho al 1 es insalvable, que tenga que actualizarse el juego una vergüenza y el contenido plus debería de venir en el disco, un desastre que en ps2 no daba fallos

    Sonic reste un classique et SEGA sait comment faire des excellents jeux, malheureusement ne convainc pas...

    Sonic Origins Plus is the best way to celebrate the hedgehog's past with 16 fun titles. The upgrades to the main four make them pretty flashy even by today's standards, but the Game Gear installments could have gotten more love than this collection did. It's still highly recommended for old and new fans alike.

    Although the Sonic Origins Collection is aimed at those who are nostalgic for early days of Blue Blur, we believe that new players will also enjoy these improved versions of the beloved 2D games that graced a beautiful period of the 90s. Game Gear games are just cherry on the top!

    Sonic and friends will always have a special place in our hearts for all those great memories, and that’s probably why SEGA is sacrificing quality and using Sonic’s name to generate money.
